Hi Brewza and may I say welcome to this great site.

You may be in luck but I will not be able to do anything about it till latter on in the year.

Tell us more about your collection so I can judge if I would like to give you my own sentimental am CB radios dating back to around 1975 which come out of my trucks with various antennas.

If they could talk they would have some stories to tell.

10 4 good budgie.

Ahhh, those were the days back in the seventies, tweaking the PLL for more channels on 27 meg SSB and adding a KC slide. Flattening the car battery running the linier amplifier through an array of annena's and having fun with the RI's from Telecom. Not forgetting the Friday night Fox hunt's.... 10-4 good buddy!

Yep, did all that, had all that too 'madaboutled'. Great times. A freezer came in mighty handy when the Romeo India's were around.

I had a big spider and Ringo (spelling) up on the house roof and a 9ft whip dead centre on the panel van roof. A slide mount allowed my radio to be used in both locations. Oh! and a roll of copper wire :)

I was a 'little bit' more legal I spose, but not at home, as I set up and ran 'Westernport Crest' VIC.

Can't remember when or how I got rid of it all, probably sold it all.

I used to talk all over the world with my Uniden Grant on the side band
When I was living in the Blue Mountains 60 km out of Sydney in the 80's
Indeed good old times
use to exchange the cards with other people as well
Amazing what you could do with an 6 meter antenna

Cheers John
